Better Than A Pot Of Gold ~ Green Recipes & Cooks' Tools

{ Via: Inslee Designs }

Of course, everyone is a little bit Irish on St. Patrick's Day. I am actually about 50% Irish, but not a fan of Irish food. It's either too salty, fatty, or plain for my taste. Or maybe I just haven't had it from the right source. What does tempt my tastebuds is eating anything green. It really is the healthiest color under the rainbow.  Today's recipe roundup showcases the Irish hue in all of its verdant varieties. Sláinte!

Mojito Margaritas

Two drinks in one? One I don't care for, the mojito, and one I love, the margarita. Together they just make one chic cocktail. Let's try it.

Farmhouse Beet Leaf and Whole 

Wheat Tart

This recipe shows that presentation is key when it comes to cooking and serving. Looks like Easter brunch to me.

Three Little Halves

Irish Pub Spinach & Artichoke Melt

How can you make a grilled cheese better? Just add artichokes, spinach and Irish 
Cheddar Cheese!

Half Baked Harvest

Persian Love Cake Donuts

Aren't these pretty little things? Said to be super fragrant, too, thanks to the rose water. The green comes naturally from pistachios. 
How sweet.

Broccoli Pesto Pasta

What a lovely Spring pasta dish! Pesto just makes everything better, to me. Add fried lemon and creamy ricotta cheese, and you have one mouthwatering meal.

Clover Cocottes
Just right for Springtime and very attractive. The smallest cocotte is priced right for
 hostess gifting.
Le Creuset

Lime Cilantro Salad Dressing

Created for Jackie's Grilled Chicken Salad, this dressing can be used for any salad. The blend of naturally sweet honey, citrus, and a hint of heat from a jalapeño pepper, sounds like a winning combination. So much better than store bought. 

The Seaside Baker

Spicy Tuna Poke Stuffed Avocados

I love tuna anyway it is prepared. But add an avocado and I am so in! Be sure to use high quality fresh tuna (salmon can be used, too. ) Frozen just will not due. Yum!

Pistachio Cake

Have you ever had it? My Mom made it back in the day, but it was without frosting, { what? } must have been a bundt cake. But a tiny Belgium bakery around the corner from me makes one. It's very special, and I feel that pistachios are a bit underrated. Give this cake a try.

Sally's Baking Addiction

Moser Glass Cake Stand
A little bit retro and whole lot of cool. Available in seven stylish shades.

Luck Of The Irish Shots

Are these dessert or cocktails? They look so good that it just doesn't matter. They pack a punch with Irish Cream, Creme de Cocoa, and Creme de Menthe.
